Why is Leadership
Style Important?
Understanding your highest and best use and how
to surround yourself with the right mix of resources
is the key to unlocking renewed energy, growth,
expansion, and results within your organization.
The 4 FABS Leadership Styles
You Need a Fixer if:
- You are facing trouble whether declining revenue, customer dissatisfaction, a toxic work environment, fraud, or some other crisis
- It’s essential to get at the root of the problem in the shortest amount of time possible, to prioritize critical items, provide stabilization, and turn things around
- Strong, decisive and focused leadership is essential to cut through the mess
You Need a Artist if:
- You are facing serious market disruptions, or you want to become the market disruptor
- It’s time to reinvent how you have done things or continue to innovate
- You need fresh thinking for a new product launch, branding initiatives, new markets, pivot in positioning or offering, technology upgrades, or some other venture
You Need a Builder if:
- You reached a ceiling in your growth, and need foundation and structure in place to burst through to the next level
- You have a good product or service and clearly can see a big market to capture
- You have gaps in people and process that are slowing you down
You Need a Strategist if:
- You have a large, complex organizations with many teams, divisions, and projects at play
- You need a leader who can set short and long-term vision, while activating a plan to get the team moving in the same direction
- There is a risk of losing momentum in a bureaucratic or slow-moving organization, and strong leadership is needed to ensure accountability and results
